WHITE CHOCOLATE TRUFFLE TARTS

This is a decadent dessert for anyone wanting to make something that little bit special. I have had this recipe for 14 years now and although I don’t make it as often as I should it is a good one to go back to. Please enjoy!

Method

Preheat oven to hot (200°C). In a bowl combine flour and sugar. Rub in butter with fingertips until mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs. Add yolks and water and mix into a dough. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate 30 minutes.

Grease a 12-cup medium muffin tray. Roll pastry out to 3 mm thick and cut into rounds to line muffin cups. Prick bases with a fork and chill 20 minutes.
Line cups with grease-proof paper and fill with rice. Bake 10 minutes. Remove paper and rice and bake 5 minutes or until golden. Set aside and allow to cool.

Sprinkle cardamon over chocolate. Bring cream just to the boil and add chocolate. Stir until chocolate has melted and is smooth. Whisk until mixture thickens. Chill 20 minutes. Spoon into pastry cases and dust with cocoa to serve.

Hints

Keep these tarts in a sealed container in the fridge for about three days.
